Tape Measure Bunting

Bunting! Just single sided, cut with pinking shears. I bought some cheap (55p) tape measures and sewed the triangles to that instead of bias binding or cotton tape. I think they look pretty snazzy.

Fabric Covered Letters

Papier mache letters (bought from Fred Aldous in Manchester - £5 each) and covered in Amy Butler fabric. I traced the letters onto the fabric and glued the face pieces down with PVA. I then snipped v shapes around the curves and wrapped round the sides. I then made a sort of bias binding to fit round the edges, and glued with PVA again. I am going to use them as display items in the workshops I run at work.
